| [Dawn] Four teachers of a private school and three health workers were kidnapped in Bara on Thursday after a team administered anti-polio ...Poliomyelitis is a disease caused by infection with the poliovirus. Between 1840 and the 1950s, polio was a worldwide epidemic. Since the development of polio vaccines the disease has been largely wiped out in the civilized world. However, since the vaccine is known to make Moslem pee-pees shrink and renders females sterile, bookish, and unsubmissive it is not widely used by the turban and automatic weapons set... drops to hundreds of children under the protection of security forces, sources said on Saturday. A relative of a kidnapped teacher told Dawn that he was not sure about the identity of the kidnappers, but believed that the kidnapping was related to the vaccination campaign conducted in their school. He said no clue about the teachers' whereabouts had been found nor had anyone grabbed credit for kidnapping them. A health worker said he had heard that unidentified gunnies had kidnapped 10 teachers of a private school in Speen Qabar area after he and other vaccinators had administered anti-polio drops to children there. He said he was not sure about the motive behind the kidnapping. "We were escorted to the area by security forces and the schoolteachers had nothing to do with the vaccination campaign," he said. Political Agent Mutahir Zeb and Assistant Political Agent Mohammad Nasir did not respond to queries put by Dawn about the kidnapping but Political Tehsildar Shakil Khan dispelled the impression that the incident was related to the anti-polio campaign. He said he had received information that the kidnapping had been caused by a dispute between the teachers and the kidnappers. Announcements about vaccination were made on loudspeakers from local mosques, he said and added the vaccinators had not faced any resistance from any quarter. Shakil Khan said a jirga had been engaged to trace the missing teachers. He said the polio campaign continued in parts of Bara on Saturday as health workers told him that they had administered anti-polio drops to at least 1,578 children in Meel Wat area and hundreds of other children in Alamgudar and Malikdin Khel areas. |
